The Koa you helped me get.

This is one of the pieces of the Koa you guys helped me to purchase last week.
It has only been sanded to 36 grit. Usually that coarse you can't see the figure yet.
The koa guy wasn't kidding when he said he was sending some really good stuff.

Now it will take a few weeks to get it dry enough. Then it will go to K&G for stabilizing.
I will be giving you guys first notification when it is ready.
Thank you again to all of you who helped.
